The Clash is a true all-round fun bike. Tough and light, simple and multi-functional. This alloy hardtail will feel great to ride hard on any kind of challenging terrain. It will tackle the urban jungle, rip at the pump track and let you ride comfortably back home as well.
A nice price and great components are the only things that clash in this bike! You will find the new, lightweight NS Quantum stem and Sam Pilgrim signature grips, NS Terra handlebar, NS Aerial pedals, lightweight Kenda tires and Octane One saddle on this bike. All these components are mounted on the sweet alloy frame that is built to last.
This bike has had a great debut in 2013 with a very good reception. For 2014 it will be continued with some small updates. The frame sizes are now slightly bigger based on requests from customers and the fork has been replaced by the reliable Rock Shox XC32 that is strong and light as well.

Always wear a helmet when riding. It will not make you deathproof, but will increase your chances to avoid serious injury if you crash (and you WILL crash). A broken leg can be fixed. A broken brain cannot ! Even if you see some of our riders without a helmet, it's only because they are complete idiots !
